A lot of this stuff is the stuff required to make SFV's economy viable, the game is now kinda approaching the state it should have launched in.

Wish they'd add a ranked match lobby but I get the feeling we'll be left waiting for that one...

super_furry · 24-08-2016 4:21pm

Haven't really been into a Street Fighter game since the Alpha days, but at €34.99 for the Deluxe Edition on PS4 I couldn't say no. What's the best way to get into the game and learn the techniques? Are the tutorials as good as something like Killer Instinct of am I better off just looking up videos?

chopperbyrne · 24-08-2016 4:38pm

The tutorials in SFV aren't bad, but they're not great either.

I'd say do the tutorials and challenges for the character you want to use.

The just jump into online matches.

Doctor DooM · 24-08-2016 10:20pm

Vesper arcade does a whole load of good online tutorials on youtube.

If you're into Reddit, Gief's gym is good too.

If you want to head online, record a couple of vids and post them here we can also chime in on what we think you need to work on

Oh and pick Ryu. Has a bit of everything, easy to play, top tier, if you want to learn SF he's your man.

Sairus · 31-08-2016 12:32pm

So apparently Capcom finally cracked down on people who used the 1 round survival mods or whatever to unlock colors/fight money. If you unlocked stuff in too short a space of time you lose all the FM you earned, but you keep the colors.

You are also locked out from legitimately earning that FM again. I'm seeing reports of folks losing 800k of FM and whatnot!

Anyone get hit with this?

Capcom took my hard earned FM but left the illegitimate obtained stuff

....unreal

Sairus · 31-08-2016 1:02pm

If you earned all the FM, then spent it in the store and bought all the costumes, characters and stages you also got to keep those.
Get ****ed when they want to buy Urien though!

Azza · 31-08-2016 1:11pm

Will check this when I get home. Have the season pass so Urien's not an issue for me. But Capcom are beyond stupid locking the colors behind survival mode.

Stupid move by a stupid company.

Nope, I got away scot-free! I knew they wouldn't truly be able to keep track of it.

Azza · 01-09-2016 1:24pm

Capcops busted me for like 30,000FM but I think the balance of FM is about 1 million in my favor for using the 1 round survival mod and I got to keep everything.

Got a warning that if I do it again they could disabled my CFN which is fine but they also said the would get my steam ID banned which sound absolutely nuts. They can f*** off if they think they can ban my steam ID which has 258 games linked to it. I'm sure they don't have the authority to do that.

You mean a VAC ban? Those are no joke. But that's all automated on STEAM's side afaik.

Dreddybajs · 02-09-2016 2:22am

Absolutely zero chance they can get anyone a VAN ban. They're talking nonsense.

Sairus · 23-09-2016 4:28pm

If you expected this thread to get a new title promptly then Urien for a big surprise.
Side note, LP, MK, HP is the best.

K.O.Kiki · 24-09-2016 3:10am

So Capcom's latest PC update broke key mappers (needed to get Direct-Input support), prevented the game from working properly, and installed a bloody rootkit.

I'm done.
D O N E

Uninstalled SFV.

See you in better games.

If it's any consolation, they rolled back the insane rootkit thing already.

... I am still pissed that 6 months after release neither of my sticks work in SFV yet though.

Sabre0001 · 24-09-2016 12:21pm

Apparently Urien's undergone some changes

The fact that they implemented all these patches to get people to play their terrible Survival Mode before fixing input methods is just plain BS.

I ain't giving them another cent for SFV.

AFAIK you still have to have the knowhow to go get rid of it yourself, the rollback apparently won't clean out the files.

Oh yeah. I had to do that earlier. I'm obviously not defending Capcom about anything in this situation.

Every character patch has been about that!

I've been kinda getting back properly into playing this now. Holy **** battle lounges that work are a ****ing god send. Instantly made the game more fun for me. See you later, ranked!
(Yes, I have been away from playing it properly that long)

Ranked is better now too since the two out of three option hit, imo.

It's significantly less annoying to play

Usually it's updating in rest mode. Was away and came back and said I'd try out urien. Had no idea they were that big

Akuma coming to Street Fighter V. Will be playable at a convention in Anaheim next month.

It says the PS experience which I am pretty sure is also the weekend of the Capcom cup!

Azza · 07-11-2016 2:24pm

Maybe this will bring Hound back and the IFGC might finally have one semi decent player in its midst!

JohnMc1 · 03-12-2016 11:13pm

Akuma Matata is so accurate.

I wonder who the silhouettes at the end could be.

I'm actually pretty sure they're the same images as used on some of the CFN profiles. I've seen some pics on twitter and it looks pretty convincing.

If they're true not one of them is an old character!

I wonder who they could be then. I would be surprised if they're all brand new characters. I was expecting Abel and C.Viper due to their appearances in Character story modes [and the Cinematic one for Abel]

It least they actually released full patch notes this time, but who thought Ryu needed an extra frame of advantage on st.MP?

raah! · 20-12-2016 4:31pm

Looks like they've done some start up increasing of most moves. These big slow stupid normals are just as much an impediment to a healthy footsie game as the input lag is. I'm surprised people never bring this up when mentioning how the game has neutered footsies. It's not just the input lag, but also these stupid slow normals, and now they are even slower.

Pre-emptive pressing and set-play based footsies.

Kolin/ Helen available now.

Interesting addition to the canon: Guile's boss is called Taylor and they were involved in a war in Kolin's homeland.

I don't think Guile and Taylor were involved in the war that destroyed her home. I have a feeling it was the US since the flags Kolin's army were flying looked like the Soviet Union flags. Though it could have just been a No particular war.

Guile just happened upon her while he was searching for Charlie.

chopperbyrne · 02-03-2017 9:39am

Really liking Kolin so far.

Could be a new main.

Also her V-Skill may just be the Survival mode killer.

I probably wrote that a bit wrong, I didn't mean they were part of the war, more they were there while the war was ongoing.

The script of her story is hilarious...

Guile: Hi, sorry, have you seen my friend? I think he might have been around here.

Kolin: Could you please be quiet, my baby brother is sleeping.

Guile: Sure, sorry.

Kolin: I KILL YOU

chopperbyrne · 03-03-2017 9:40am

She asked him to be quiet, but brush head just kept talking.

He did keep say "I promise to be quiet"

I assume what they were very unclearly reaching for is Kolin's little brother died in the war and Guile disturbed his grave accidentally?

I think having a fight on that spot disturbs a grave more than a guy wandering through does. She clearly didn't want him going into the cave where she was keeping Nash's body.

No problem Doc. Yeah she is definitely bipolar or something. She flipped like that even in the cinematic story.

Story of SFV is a mess, if you try to analyse you may give yourself brain damage :pac:
